The first two have excellent lighting to me Rob, and show up the Sigma rendering quality well. I can appreciate the love of the mystery though 👌

And the accompanied images with the Munchen.

That 'Asanuma' has some character!

I guess scepticism can indeed lead to luck, which is partly the reason for the thread title. The other is the disparity in form of two recent acquisitions following a lucky antiques store find. A Pentacon 300 f.4 and a Steinhell Munchen Cassarit 50 f.2.8 preset followed me home, the...

And for these fallow times we squirrel away our photography acorns Rob. ...now where did I put my 2019 pics again 😅

The final shot Rob cuts a Vogue cover vibe, something about all these conveys an impression of your daughters character to me, and that's what makes a portrait in my world.

Ahh the K 01, cool camera Stevenson- I nearly got one prior to my KS-1 (eBay bid was lost and didn't manage to find another at time) Would have been cool to see some of those images, I used to have that lens when I had a Panasonic GF3 many years back, was ridiculous on that body. Beth, you...

I feel there is often a need to 'apologise', well, proffer one, depending on the equipment used to take the shot, particularly with a phone camera. And you know what, I think I'm good with that 😁. Brian, and many others, have shown what a good phone cam shot can look like, and they do make for...

What a lens it is Rob! And I'm now going to ponder the hidden joke here...

Thanks Brian, and thoughtful comments as always. The community of photographers, exemplified here for sure, provide such a banquet for the artistic soul it's hard not to be inspired to challenge my experiences and what can be created. I ponder oftentimes the genres I resonate with, and find...

Thanks chaps, that first one of the sparrow hawk is one of my favorite photos I've taken.

Installation title could be 'Homo sapiens: Office Edition'. The clarity of the shot is remarkable Rob, sharp on the lettering.

My family took a shine to bird watching over the last couple of years, and we are fortunate to have some excellent RSPB sites nearby. I've never had the funds to feel the draw of wildlife photography, seemingly such costly lenses with every possible enhancement of tech was needed. I would watch...

The shot has a great character as an arboriculture interest image, but the hidden rare birds are a treat. I've found myself in the position many times with the wrong focal length lens attached; you made it work Brian.

This would have been incredible to see. I love the cormorants and just learned that cranes are not part of the family, thanks to your photo sparking a bit of investigation.

Hilarious mental image Beth, I've heard tales of male peacocks getting all Hunter S. Thompson like. Beautiful photo Paul.

Rich portraits Rob, congratulations to you both and the years more to come.

Layered with memories from you Rob, the image has a cool diagonal scale from register, past the stylish, yet nightmarish to some, chair to the casual pooch leading his faithful man for surely some tasty treats. I appreciate learning what Googie design is, as I've been a fan of this style my...

Thank you Beth, the engagement and the quality of images found within, and the discourse it provides, it's becoming an endangered species in the safari of the Internet.

Many thanks Rob, good to be back at Photographers Prior 😁. Thanks Pete, appreciate the reassurance and views, as with you Rob, the spark to the imagination keeps me reflecting on why I do take photos, life's continuing story seen through my wanders, of which there has been plenty since I've...
